Nimda attacks IIS http servers and also seeks backdoors left by Trojans such as Sadmind and Code Red.
Nimda uses .htm files and the MAPI service to obtain email addresses to which it then sends itself as a MIME-encoded email attachment every ten days. Nimda can also infect a client computer browsing an infected IIS web server, using the client web browser's javascript capabilities.
